Nikon P7800

[moojii]

Hey all

I have just picked up a used Nikon P7800 for small sensor street photography.

A little confused though, I shoot in RAW with the monochrome mode enabled but when I upload the Raw files to Studio NX the files are in black and white and not colour.

Any ideas why?

My guess is the software is automatically applying the black and white camera profile.

Ok, so there may be an option to turn that off. I will have a look.

NX Studio reads and applies all the camera settings but they are not locked in. In Studio if you click on the Adjustments tab you will see a Color Mode setting with a drop down list. Click on the arrow to drop the list and you can choose which mode you want - Original, different colour modes and Black and White.

I've not used NX for years but I expect there will be.

PS If you get sick of the P7800 let me know. Mine is starting to misbehave.

Awesome, many thanks.

Nah, it's rubbish!

Admittedly mine's had a hard life, living in my fishing bag and getting covered in mud and fish slime! I find it good up to ISO 800, but other than that it's a belting camera.

There is not; you have to select a different picture control for each image (or load saved adjustments).
